Demonstrators blocked major highways on Sunday as student protesters launched a non-cooperation program to press for the government’s resignation, and violence spread nationwide. At least five people were killed and dozens injured amid fierce clashes in several places in the capital, Dhaka, police and witnesses said. “They were brought dead to the hospital with bullet wounds,” said Abu Hena Mohammad Jamal, the superintendent of the district hospital. Three people were killed in violence in the northern district of Bogura, and 30 were killed in 12 other districts, hospital officials said. Bangladesh authorities instructed the country’s telecoms on Sunday to shut down 4G, effectively disabling internet services, according to a confidential government memo seen by Reuters.
